Chapter Goals

Theme: "Be Evolutionary"

PRESIDENT, Emily Dreblow

To build a strong Board or Directors focusing on the 2016-2017 theme of “Be Evolutionary,” encouraging Board to embrace change, build off of existing initiatives and bring forth new and creative ideas. Create board mentor pairings with new and veteran board members to support the development of the Board.

Support the Executive Committee by attending at least one committee meeting lead by each Executive Committee member and host monthly executive meeting via conference call (likely the first Tuesday of every month.)

Focus on devising strategies to promote the ILEA Brand and the Core Values both at the Board and the Chapter level.

Maintain and improve the value to our members:

Work with Communications Committee to ensure we are educating our members about the name change and new brand

Validate and acknowledge sponsor support and contributions by making face-to-face contact with 3 sponsors at each event.

Collaborate with nonprofit community and Education and Programs Committee to bring back our ‘Charitable Giving’ program and collect donation items at 5 of our Educational Programs. Facilitate one community service project with the Board and/or Members Only event.

Review previous year’s outreach to prospective Strategic Sponsors by August 30, 2016 and create an outreach plan by September 9, 2016.

Develop social media campaign for outreach to secure additional sponsors and highlight offerings by current Strategic Sponsors including written and video content for newsletter and social media platforms.

Coordinate with the Board and Committees to ensure proper treatment and handling of Strategic Sponsor relationships are handled with care and coordinated effort. ‘ILEA Relationship Management check-in and follow-up’ will be part of my monthly board meeting report.

Check in with each VP once a month to ensure that they are on track with their goals and have the support they need, including attending 1 committee meeting per month.

Sign on 3 new strategic partners or advertisers by July 1, 2017.

Establish a succession plan before February 1, 2017.
